About

Suddenly Sleepy is a Oregon Nonprofit 501 (c)(3) that helps people affected with narcolepsy and advocates the importance of quality sleep. Founded in 2018 by Andre Royal Sr. “Suddenly Sleepy” 5k was just the first step in advocacy and educational events held locally around town. We are expanding our efforts as we continue to meet our goals.

“Suddenly Sleepy” provides a fun and engaging way to support the importance of sleep through awareness campaigns & diverse communities within already existing infrastructures such as Schools, The Running Community, Arts and the Hospitality Industry.

Our mission is to create meaningful conversations around the importance of sleep, localized change, national and global awareness, as well as assist in increases in workforce productivity and reduced stigma surrounding sleep seeing as how it impacts quality of life. All donations to Suddenly Sleepy are tax-deductible.
